bypassing websense

I have rolled it out to over 80 sites and think its fantastic. I really like websense. We integrated it with ISA Server as the proxy and had no issues with it.

I lightly dabbled with Websense when attempting to install it. But I was receiving all kinds of errors. Did you follow in structure when setting up the Websense server. I haven't checked the website, and I will here shortly to see if there are some step by step instructions.

How is that ISA Server working out for you?

ZiPPy

Never had problems with the install of Websense. Now and again i have seen issues once its been running, the main issue is disk space. It needs around two and half Gig to download/uncompact/install the database file otherwise it can fall over.

ISA has been in place since ISA 2000 now for around 5 years. Recently upgraded to ISA 2006 which is a vast improvement.

Moved jobs now though and we don't use ISA Server where i currently work (or Websense which is a shame).

Cheers

What do they run at your new job?

ZiPPy

My new place uses WatchGuard firewalls along with the WebBlocker plugin which is based on a Surf Control database. The firewall's aren't too bad (not as good as a pix but does have some good functionality for a box thats really easy to configure) and i have not had chance to look at WebBlocker yet.

Zippy what type of errors are you getting?
